What's Apple Day all about?

Apple Day is one of two major annual fund raisers for our group. Unlike our annual registration 100% of funds raised through Apple Day donations go to our group. Here are some of the things that these donations get used for:

purchase and maintenance camping equipment

subsidizing group events, outings, and camps

purchasing badges and crests

Scouts don't "sell" apples, there is no fixed price. We seek donations from the public and we need to show our pride and gratitude to the public.

Please show with your uniform in best condition, wear a smile, and speak with a clear voice. Always thank people, even when they decline.
